GG Brief Editorial Desk · AI-assisted, source attributed

Team Spirit (Eastern Europe and Central Asia) beat Myanmar’s Yangon Galacticos 4-3 to win MSC 2026, becoming the first team from outside Southeast Asia to win an official international Mobile Legends: Bang Bang tournament. The Philippines, Indonesia and Malaysia — the three MPL franchise regions — all failed to reach the Grand Final for the first time in any official MLBB tournament. The result ends a long run of MPL regional dominance and signals that other regions are closing the competitive gap.
